Description
This is my Jack Russell Bob. He has just had his 16th birthday. Whilst he is finally showing signs of slowing down, he is still happy and gallops around the garden each day. He is loyal, totally fearless and brave. He has been a good mate. The best mate a bloke could wish for. If any other big dogs have approached myself or my 69 kg Boxer over the years, he has ALWAYS put himself between them and us. Since he was born, he has always been bravery personified. In his day, he has fought off Pitbulls, and a host of other characters 5 times his size. He was basically cut in half last year to remove tumours from all over his body. He emerged from the vet's covered in blood...........cancer free...........he jumped in the car..........went home..........and had dinner.............and the next day was running around like nothing had happened. If it had of been me, I would have milked it for 6 months!!!!!!!!!!!! He is tough, in the truest sense of the word, and I will always respect him for it.
He is my mate.
He is Bob!

Sweet Sixteen to you Bob! What a guy. Sounds like any of these names would fit: Indefatigable, Indomitable, Intrepid:)

great looking dog and 16 years is a long time for a canine. I doubt if neither of my two dogs would try and defend each other or me
